Coffee Boy

-Fifteen-

Warning: I cried writing this.

"Be my friend, hold me
Wrap me up, unfold me
I am small, I'm needy
Warm me up and breathe me
Ouch, I have lost myself again
Lost myself and I am nowhere to be found
Yeah, I think that I might break
Lost myself again and I feel unsafe"

Yoongi POV

I ended up walking to the coffee shop while Taehyung and Jungkook talked things over. Through the glass, I could see Hoseok, showing a forced smile to all of the customers in line. My heart ached for him and the whole situation. Taehyung had practically used Hoseok to try and get over Jungkook and avoid the feelings he really had.

I smiled weakly to myself before getting in line. Luckily, no one else got in line behind me, giving me the opportunity to chat with Hoseok.

He saw me when I walked up to the counter. This time, his smile didn't seem quite as forced. "Hey Yoongi."

"What's up Hoseok?" I gave him my order, paying him and leaving a pretty healthy tip.

He handed me my drink. I was finally able to get a closer look at him. He was beautiful. His tanned skin glowed beautifully, even in the dimly lighted coffee shop. I checked to make sure there were no other customers before leaning closer to him. "How're you doing?"

He gave me a weird look, as if I had no right to ask him something like that, but it faded after a moment and he sighed, looking down at the ground. "I'm... I'm okay. Thanks for asking."

"Are you really okay?"

He gave me a genuine smile, placing a gentle hand on my shoulder. "I will be. I just... need time. I knew he liked Jungkook, so I'm not surprised he chose him over me."

My confidence got the best of me. My hand found its way to his cheek. God his skin is so smooth. "If I had a choice, Hoseok, I would've gone with you."

Hoseok raised an eyebrow, a slight frown on his face. "Don't you like love Jungkook or something?"

I shrugged, averting my eyes from his intense stare. "I know he would never reciprocate so I've accepted it. I can see how happy Taehyung makes him, when they're actually talking, of course."

Hoseok chuckled. My heart fluttered inside my chest as I grabbed my drink, saying goodbye to Hoseok, and making my way back to the hospital.

Just my luck that I would see Jungkook and Taehyung making out when I entered the room. I cleared my throat, watching the two break apart, a string of saliva connecting their lips.

"Kook, don't you think you should be trying to keep your breathing under control instead of making out with Tae?" I crossed my arms, trying to look tough.

Jungkook rolled his eyes. "We were having a moment. Not my fault you came back too soon."

"God if I hadn't come back, who knew what the doctors would've walked into."

Jungkook's cheeks turned a bright pink and Taehyung just coughed awkwardly.

Third person POV

After sitting around for a few hours, the doctor finally came in to check on Jungkook. She brought in his scans, showing them to the three males in the room. "Jungkook, I'm sorry to say this, but you see this darkened area here?" She pointed to a place on Jungkook's lungs that was so dark, it was barely seen on the scans. "That part of your lung is not receiving any air. It means that you need new lungs, along with your heart."
